Tar Heels' road won't be easy
Posted Apr 12, 2007
This week's decisions by Tyler Hansbrough and Ty Lawson to return to school for the 2007-08 season were enough to solidly position North Carolina as the preseason basketball favorite in the ACC. If freshman Brandan Wright makes the same call, the Tar Heels almost certainly will start off as the top-ranked team nationally. But even if Wright leaves for the NBA, Carolina still will have a significant talent advantage over most other teams.
